Laurent Lafitte who stars in the latest version of France’s feature take of Alexandre Dumas’ The Count of Monte Cristo thinks there’s twentysomething adaptations of the classic, but each one offers something different on the 1,400 page novel.
“You have to make certain choices,” said the pic’s co-director and co-scribe Matthieu Delaporte who sprung to the project with collaborator Alexandre de La Patelliere after their work on the two-part feature version of Dumas’ The Three Musketeers.

The latest production cost $46.5M and hits theaters via Pathe in France on June 28.

The Count of Monte Cristo purchases her freedom and watches her grow into adulthood, eventually falling in love with her. In the book, she’s devoted to him for saving her from imprisonment and torture.
